I'm sure they got used to their yes man in Blake and they fear being able to have any control over Jurich.

You were still excited on Christmas morning even though you knew there was a wrapped pair of socks under that tree.

In any case, this is the most exciting time since Golden got the boot. Well, and that 15 minutes after Richt retired.

I've been thinking it was the other for a while. But UNM is 3-9 and NM St is 2-10, so we're already improving!

I completely agree. As of right now, we don't know who. But if they were set on Zo/Gino as being in charge of football, maybe the bigger boys had no interest. Jurich/Rhoades/Coyle would've been great choices. I'm a little less high on Radakovich simply because Clemson tried cutting some sports...

I'm not settling. I haven't said he's my choice at all. I just said he's not bad enough to open up a vein over. We absolutely could do better. But the BOT is the problem in this case. Jurich would've been a home run hire who could train someone up over the next 5 years.

I get that, but LSU doesn't strike me as a dysfunctional athletic department that's afraid to fire someone so they move him around for 14 years. Nunez wouldn't be on my short list, but he's better than Hernandez and if we get a competent person in charge of football, we might never hear his...

Exactly!

Blake James would've last 15 minutes at LSU in any capacity. Nunez had several different jobs over 14 years. I see the point about his time at NM St, but what resources do they realistically have? He's not my top choice by far, but he's light years better than Hernandez.

So you'd prefer Hernandez?

Everybody freaked out about Hernandez, then have the same level of freak out about Nunez, who has twice the resume as Hernandez. I just don't understand the panic over Nunez. Hernandez, probably, but Nunez? This isn't like the Mario/Lane debate where each have strengths and weaknesses.

If Tom Jurich's name had never been brought up, this group would be wetting themselves at the thought of Nunez. He had 14 years at LSU as an assistant, then another 4 years as an actual AD at NM St. Blake James had no AD experience, Nunez does, lots of it. Highsmith has no experience running a...
